FAQ
Will it fit an IS (6-bolt) hub?
The hub mounting is irrelevant here – the adapter changes the spindle distance in the PM standard. The rotor mounting can be 6-bolt or Center Lock (use the appropriate lockring/adapter).
Can I use it with any 220 mm disc?
Yes, if it is compatible with your support
